Managing Your Access Server As a Telnet Listener Node
Removing a Telnet ListenerYou can remove a Telnet listener that was defined in either the permanent or operational databases. Use the privileged CLEAR TELNET LISTEN command (which acts on the operational database) or PURGE TELNET LISTEN command (which acts on the permanent database) to remove a defined Telnet listener and its associated characteristics.

Local> SET TELNET LISTEN 2005 CONNECTIONS DISABLED
2If a session exists, use the LOGOUT command to log out the port.
3Disable the port as follows (substitute your listener TCP port for 2005 and the listener physical port for 5):
Local> CHANGE TELNET LISTENER 2005 PORT 5 DISABLED
4Enable the Telnet listener. The following shows how to enable connections to internet port 2005:
